Stroker Serpentine Sexgen Animation Set

This is a set of 514 animations created by Corsi Mousehold, Stroker Serpentine, and Briggi Bard. Two animations were also contributed by Craig Altman.

The set dates from approximately 2007 and previous.

It was released to the public domain in the fall of 2011 by Stroker Serpentine.

Some of the other three animators involved dispute his right to have done so.

Consequently, if you are using it, some feel that it may be best if you consider only those animations showing Stroker Serpentine as the true public domain ones, and delete and not use the other ones. A script to check a prim's inventory and remove animations by creators who assert their work was pirated is freely available on the Second Life Marketplace.

[14:50] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): Hello sorry to bring up what might be a sore point for you but it is my company's belief that it is always best to get permission to use people's animations, and you can probably guess where this is leading, may I have your permission to make use of your animations that can be found in the Sexgen engine or would you prefer I delete them from my inventory?
[14:55] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): It would be nice if you didn't resell them.
[14:56] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): ah probably best for me to delete them then since we are looking to use them in our builds, or do you mean resell as they are?
[14:56] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): Resell at all. I support FurNation with them
[14:57] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand) nods with understanding "ok then, thank you for taking the time to answer my enquiry, is it the same thing with Briggi's do you know?"
[14:59] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): UNfortunately yes. Sorry hon.
[14:59] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): The scripts we were going to Open source anyway and if Stroker wants to give out his animations ... all the power to him.
[15:00] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): not to worry, clearly Stroker has done wrong here and I would like to make sure I at least do the right thing before I create any end products
[15:00] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): He's facing three DMCA's right now and the entire base unit could be wiped from the grid.
[15:01] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): 3 DMCAs?, Briggi, yourself, how many others has he ripped off by doing this?
[15:02] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): Craig Altman. Owner if Bits and Bobs.
[15:03] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): however rest assured, I shall not be using stolen animations, it would look bad for business, and could close the company I represent before its had chance to open
[15:04] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): May I share a copy of this IM with the rest of the company staff so they are aware which animations not to use?
[15:05] Corsi DeAllura (corsi.mousehold): Please yes.
[15:06] Lil' Devil (lillith.firebrand): again thank you for taking the time to deal with my enquiry, it is much appreciated, as it is the hope of our company to start out on good footing ~smiles~

Here is a list of the 514 (note the counting starts at 0) animations, so that you may know which belong to Stroker and are therefore safe *legally* to use as now being in the public domain (note that does not mean that Linden Lab may not wipe any product containing any of the set.) The legal status of the other animations as far as public domain use goes is disputed, as shown above.
